It's all about creating the biggest show possible, and I feel those three matches are the most profitable for the company. Once Rock returns to television, the interest level for a rematch with Cena will jump dramatically. Lesnar and Triple H aren't done yet, clearly, since Lesnar got the win in their first match. A streak vs. streak match between Punk and Undertaker sounds amazing too.

Punk/Undertaker
Lesnar/Cena
Ziggler/Orton
Rhodes Scholars/Team Hell No
Cesaro/Miz/Kingston
Cara/Rey
Ryback/Big Show
Barrett/Sheamus
Random match to showcase a lot of the other talent that should be on the card but aren't cuz of Lesnar and Undertaker (and Rock if Rock has a match)

No question it looks good business wise, but it also looks like a pointless chore to sit through.

HHH/Lesnar 2. The first one wasn't that great so we already know the match likely won't blow us away. The story would obviously be HHH coming back to take his win back from Lesnar, which really helps out no one in the long run. Instead I would suggest HHH returning to allow someone else to take his revenge for him, in this case Ryback. Talk about an endorsement if he pulls it off.

Punk/Taker. Many factors working against this match, probably the biggest being that Taker is too beat up to be champ again. Also, no way anyone buys Punk as a threat to the streak at this point. Enter a non title match with Cena.

As for the title I would do Rock/Punk 2 with a dirty finish at the Rumble. Multiple ways to handle the world title match, lots of great contenders in Ziggler, Orton, Sheamus, Barrett, etc. I don't really have a problem with Rey/Cara.

Orton wins the title at the EC and Dolph cashes in setting up the rematch for 'Mania. Cena/Punk is just to avoid Rock being a glory hog. Show wants to knock out and end Taker, period. Hell No are at an odds and facing each other in matches, RS look to capitalize on this. Lesnar looks to cripple Ryback and prove there is no next big thing, only Lesnar. Miz/Cesaro is just to get the middle card titles up there and it seems logical should Miz turn face properly and Cesaro keep the title.

I hate them both, Taker more so. Though I'd love to see Show knock Taker out.

I meant ending the streak. Knocking out Taker and not even covering him, just standing with a foot on him or letting the 10 count go. Especially with all the usual Taker entrance stuff and then a sudden K.O quick ending. I just don't like the old man.

I don't like Undertaker. You do. It's one of many differences between us, I'm sure.

But how about that CM Punk?

I don't care if you don't like him, but if you're serious about thinking they should actually end the Streak by just having Big Show embarrass him for the sake of it, that's legitimately stupid. It would benefit no one and would only serve to spit in the face of one of their most loyal and hardest workers. If they were going to end the Streak, there'd be a million better ways to do it that would actually give the rub to someone who could use it, not a 40-year-old, out of shape guy who's having one last "thank you" run.

I don't think WWE should do it, I wasn't serious. I'll never post a card off the top of my head again. Except I will and you'll all act like I'm on the WWE creative team.

There are speculations that Shawn Michaels and WWE are trying to work out a plan with ROH to have HBK come out of retirement just for one night. HBK has stated that Mike Mondo is the only guy in this generation that matches his ring skills and psychology. He said that he wanted to be apart in making Mondo an even bigger icon than he's already destined to be.

With all the WWE '13 talk on here about how epic The Universe Mode is now, I decided to go get it. You guys just created positive advertisement and a buyer for the game. Congrats, or something like that.
